CHICKEN DIVAN
This is a recipe to serve your mother-in-law; we call it a 'bride basic'. It differs from some Chicken Divan recipes because of the curry. Men love this. Wonderful! The ingredients can be 'assembled' and frozen, then baked when you're ready. Serve with rice and a fruit salad, if desired.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later on.
- Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your Veggie Divan the best flavor and texture. If you can, buy them from a local farmer's market or organic grocery store.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a little bit of crunch. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in Veggie Divan, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Cheddar, Parmesan, and Gruyère are all good choices.
- Serve immediately: Veggie Divan is best served immediately after it is made. The vegetables will start to lose their flavor and texture if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
Veggie Divan is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it's also a good source of protein and fiber. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a Veggie Divan recipe that everyone will love.
